Game is constantly scrolling up

[Jefffan24]

I'm using a G27 wheel, but I can't interact with any menu because the game is constantly scrolling up.

Check what other controllers you have plugged in.

I had the same issue using an AccuForce wheel, CST pedals, Fanatec SSQ shifter, and DSD hand-brake. Now the game just crashes after the initial loading screen.

[Jefffan24]

@Khann yeah I don't have any other controllers plugged in, just a mouse, keyboard and G27.

Anyone found a solution? I got the same problem

[In_Ur_Dads_Ass]

I have the same issue. When i disconnect my DSD pedals the menus stops scrolling. Anyone have have a solution?

[RorschachDM]

I think that something is up with the pedal integration in the game. Some people have no problems at all. Others have this scrolling issues, whcih is tied to the pedals, and others have the brake/throttle issue as well. Annoying.

[Jefffan24]

Very, I've stopped playing completely because its unusable :/

This is how I solved the problem and posted it on codemasters forum. I am using a pro OSW setup but should be the same solution.
----------------------------------------------------------

Ok, I've figured it out finally and there is a work around to our problem. Everybody with OSW and HE Sim Pedals + accessories.

1- Disconnect Pedals from USB (This will prevent rolling menu and allow you to set all the other devices including Handbrake, Shifter.... ) When assigning function make sure only those used for that device are assigned.

2- Now select Keyboard as your steering device.

3-Plug in your HE Pedals. (Rolling menu select will begin.)

4-Press your brake slowly until you get the "menu rolling to stay still".

5-Now again go to devices, select HE SIM PEDALS and go into the Button Assignment.

6-You wont be able to stop this menu roll BUT, you can just keep pressing F1 now until you reset all of the assignments.

7-Rolling should now have stopped as you reset everything under that device and you can now go to Gas, Brake and Clutch and only set those.

8- Everything should now be working, just go back and select Automatic Selection as your steering device and you should be good to go.

9- Set the FFB to your liking. (If you don't have FFB then you need to add the Device ID as per another tutorial that's already posted.

Doesn't work for me. I'm using a G920 and the pedals are connected directly to the wheel.
I tried to disconnect any other USB input device (KB LG G910, Mouse a) Roccat Tyon b) LG G700, HS LG G35) with no result. Its time for a patch, this way its unplayable for me.

i made a post one day one about this. Im using the T300 wheel and have no other controllers connected. And the menus in button bind, upgrades and few other menus keep scrolling up. I cant tune or upgrade because of this stupid issue. And because of this issue i have stopped playing.

[Jefffan24]

Yeah those steps didn't work for the G27 either, still have the scrolling, game is unplayable atm.

[FOG-TinTops]

I have a G25 and load cell brake mod - I had to hold the brake pedal down as it's reversed to the other pedals now - This brough the menu to a stop - Went to the brake config, and released the brake pedal during its 5 second scan until it came up "upper" and now I have a working brake pedal - While some menus still scroll I can stop it now with the brake pedal, and the game actually works. Hopefuly they introduce a "custom" controller tab and averyone can mod their buttons and pedals to suit themselves :-)

This worked for me (#298):

I know it's about 3 years too late, but I've currently got a Logitech G920 where the pedals are causing the auto scrolling in some menus. The good news is I've found a solution, but it involves modifying some of the config in the game files. (Just a few lines)

Firstly, the way I've done it is that I've modified the default input presets for the G920. ((The default input presets can be accessed in-game by going to options & extras - input - device management - (Ensure that you take note of the steering wheel + accessories (handbrake\ pedals) available and that it's selected under 'Configure device')).

Furthermore, when you click on 'Input presets' and select your steering wheel. It will RESET your current steering wheel bindings. You'll need to do this after changing the config script which is detailed at the end.



(*WARNING*)
*Changing the config of the game files requires full attention, because if there are any errors in the config can cause the game to start crashing upon the next load up.*

Next, I navigated to the location of the default input presets in DiRT 4, which should be in your Steam folder. The default location is C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\DiRT 4\input\actionmaps.

You will now have a bunch of XML Documents listing various steering wheels, handbrakes and pedals e.g. lg_g27, lg_g29, he_sim_pedals, he_sim_handbrake and ftec_clubsport_pedal.

As my steering wheel is the G920 which is also stated in the 'Input presets' in-game. This means I need to open the 'lg_g920' (XML Document). I do this using notepad (click once on the desired XML doc and then right click and 'Open with') as I find it makes it easier to read and modify the script.


Now you'll need to find this piece of script below. To help find it, click inside the notepad doc so the keyboard/typing cursor appears. Then I recommend using the 'Find' tool (Ctrl+F) and search for 'scroll'.


<group name="scroll">
<action name="down">
<axis name="di_y_axis" type="negative" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />
</action>
<action name="up">
<axis name="di_z_axis_rotation" type="negative" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />
</action>



You need to remove both of these lines stated below.


<axis name="di_y_axis" type="negative" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />

<axis name="di_z_axis_rotation" type="negative" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />




So, in contrast with the group section. This section should now look similar to this.



</group>
<group name="navigate">
<action name="back">
<axis name="di_button_1" />
</action>
<action name="down">
<axis name="di_dpad_0_down" />
</action>
<action name="left">
<axis name="di_dpad_0_left" />
</action>
<action name="right">
<axis name="di_dpad_0_right" />
</action>
<action name="select">
<axis name="di_button_0" />
</action>
<action name="up">
<axis name="di_dpad_0_up" />
</action>
<group name="scroll">
<action name="down">
</action>
<action name="up">
</action>


EXTENSION**
Furthermore, the issue with the pedals also effects the 'View Replay' element of DiRT 4 after finishing a race\event e.t.c. This can also me amended by changing the config.


Same as above really. You can use the 'Find' tool or just scroll near the bottom till you find this piece of script.



<group name="replay">
<action name="exit">
<axis name="di_button_1" />
</action>
<action name="forward">
<axis name="di_x_axis" type="upper" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />
<axis name="di_y_axis" type="negative" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />
</action>
<action name="rewind">
<axis name="di_x_axis" type="lower" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />
<axis name="di_z_axis_rotation" type="negative" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />



Now you need to remove these lines as stated below, but be careful here as the 4 bindings above look very similar


<axis name="di_y_axis" type="negative" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />

<axis name="di_z_axis_rotation" type="negative" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />



So, in contrast with the group section. This section should now look similar to this.

</action>
<action name="rewind">
<axis name="di_x_axis" type="lower" deadzone="0.0" saturation="1.0" />
</action>
<action name="playback_step_up">
<axis name="di_dpad_0_up" />
</action>
<action name="playback_step_down">
<axis name="di_dpad_0_down" />
</action>
<action name="pause">
<axis name="di_button_0" />
</action>
<group name="toggle">
<action name="music">
<axis name="di_button_3" />
</action>
<action name="ui">
<axis name="di_button_9" />
</action>



Don't forget to 'save' the config after.

You are now all ready to load DiRT 4 again. As we've only changed the config of the input preset, you need to now choose your steering wheel preset in 'Input presets' under 'Device Management'

From this point further, there should be no more auto scrolling in those menu's.

Good luck and sorry for the essay.
